<span>The first number = x
The </span>second number = 2x-3

x + 2x-3 = 36
3x = 36+3
3x = 39
x = 39/3
x = 13

The first number = x = 13
The second number = 2x-3 = 2*13 - 3 = 26 - 3 = 23

Naily [24]

Answer:

Look below

Step-by-step explanation:

To verify that the solution is (3,4) we can plug the numbers back into the equation.

Remember that the solution to a linear equation is represented in the form (x,y). Therefore we plug 3 in for x and 4 in for y.

4=3+1

4=4 Correct!

Now we need to check the second equation

4=-2(3)+10

4=-6+10

4=4 Correct!

Therefore the solution is (3,4)

A microscope was originally priced at $100 but went on sale for 10% off. If Adele bought the microscope and paid 10% sales tax,
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

$99

Step-by-step explanation:

First, it was on sale for 10% off. 10% = 0.1 = 1/10. 1/10 of 100 is 10, so we subtract 10 (because 10% off) to get $90. Then, the sales tax, which we add, is 10%. 1/10 of 90 is 9, so we add 9 to 90 to get our total to be $99
